Riche är en institution som de flesta från Stockholm känner till då restaurangen öppnade redan 1893. Restaurangen är i brasseriestil, men de har även haft en burgare på menyn de senaste 20 åren vilket nog var iögonfallande när den kom. Lustigt nog så tog Riche bort burgaren från menyn kort efter vårt besök (och endast ett par dagar före publicering), men vi uppfyller vårt publicistiska ansvar och presenterar recensionen ändå – ifall de skulle få för sig att låta den göra comeback. För tiden har verkligen gått ifrån dem.

Vår Richeburgare var en dubbelburgare gjord på högrev med ost, sobrasada (en bredbar fläskkorv med paprika), tomat, jalapeños och en lökring. Denna serverades tillsammans med pommes frites och dipp för 225 kronor.

För att börja med något positivt så var pommes fritesen goda och hade en fräsch tillhörande dipp. Men där tog det roliga slut. Det ganska så intetsägande brödet var inte tillräckligt rostat, och det undre brödet var uppblött till en degig röra av den flottiga sobrasadan. Och trots att köttets stekgrad var okej och lite rosa så var det ofantligt torrt på insidan. Osten var mer tuggig än smältig och den friterade lökringen precis under det övre brödet gjorde burgaren instabil och svåräten.

Riche fortsätter såklart med sin ordinarie meny, och vi förstår faktiskt varför de tagit bort den. För 20 år sedan var den kanske en klassiker, men numera saknas tydligen expertisen som krävs för att hålla laga och komponera en bra burgare, särskilt för den saftiga prislappen. Vila i frid, Richeburgaren – du kommer inte att vara saknad.

In English

Riche is an institution that most Stockholm residents know of, since they’ve been open since 1893. This brasserie has had a burger on the menu for the last 20 years, making them one of the first high-end restaurants to take the dish seriously back in the day. Strangely enough, announced that they’re retiring the burger from their menu shortly after our visit, but we’re publishing it anyway, just in case they try to give it a comeback.

The Richeburger contained two chuck patties with cheese, sobrasada (a spreadable pork sausage with red peppers), tomato, jalapeño and an onion ring. It was served with french fries and a dip for 225 SEK.

Sure, the fries were nicely crispy and the dip had a nice freshness to it, but the good parts end there really. The bread was very plain and hadn’t been toasted enough, which let the greasy sobrasada quickly dissolve the lower bun. The patties were pink in the middle, but both dry and tasteless. The cheese was more stringy than melty, and the fried onion ring under the top bun felt out of place and made the burger difficult to eat.

Riche will of course continue with their regular menu, but we understand why the burger has been retired. 20 years ago it might have been a classic, but in this day and age it’s clear that they simply can’t keep up. Rest in peace Richeburger – you won’t be missed.

🍔 Review № 1381

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 @black_bear_burger ★★★★☆

Black Bear Burger is one of the veterans of the modern burger wave in England, and we have tried their burgers several times since our first review in 2017. Over the years, Black Bear Burger has received more and more attention and hype, both domestically and internationally, and today they are one of the most well-known burger restaurants in all of England. They have locations at nearly 10 places around London, and we visited their restaurant inside the Market Halls Victoria food hall and ordered their Double Miso Bacon Burger – the same burger that won them the National Burger of the Year 2025 award. The burger contained double patties, double cheese, smoked bacon and their miso butter mayo, and it cost 15.8 GBP (21 USD).

The burger looked exactly as we remembered it, with pre-formed patties and a pale bun covered in a generous layer of sesame seeds. The bun was soft and fluffy, but just like on our previous visits, we felt that the crust-like amount of sesame seeds took over both in terms of flavour and texture. The meat was of high quality as always and had a nice and potent dry-aged character that they are known for. The meat could have been juicier though, as it felt a bit too compact this time. The bacon was super tasty and crispy, just the way we like it, and the onion also contributed a nice texture. Their miso butter mayo was very flavourful with its buttery, salty, and umami-rich taste, but together with the bacon and the beef, the overall flavour profile was a bit too salty. We would have liked to see some kind of freshness to break up the saltiness for a more complete experience.

We are very happy that a veteran like Black Bear Burger continues to deliver high-quality burgers year after year, and they are still a safe bet when you are craving a really good burger in London.
